HED J2 questions.
Anyone know much about the J2? Searching online doesn't give me too much info. Basically I am looking for an inexpensive front race only wheel to be used on my TT/Tri bike.
How deep is it?
Durability wise, would it hold up to a 190lb masher for 12-20 races a year?

I believe it's only 30 mm deep which is not enough to be truly aero. I'd go with a HED 3

Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm running a 25-27mm deep front right now, so there isn't too much more benefit. I'll probably wait until next year and do the H3.
Thanks.
Thanks.
